MOVIE ENACTS GRIPPING TALE
OF GERMAN OUTRAGES
IN BELGIUM.
By C. C. CHAPMAN.
PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 25. Pert
land's campaign for the Liberty Bonds
was fanned t fever heat Tuesday.
The wonderful feature about it is that
a motion picture accomplished it. Re
markable as was the speech of Cyrus
i Peirce, member of the national speak
ers committee or tne liberty Loan,
more striking was the official French
picture "In tha Wake of the Huns,"
which absolutely gripped and enthrall
ed a vast audience. "In the Wake of
the Huns" portrayed grippingly just
what the Germans have done to Nor
thern France and Belgium. First hand
motion picture.) of outrages commit
ted at one tim.s actually had the audi
ence sobbing. Working it up to a
magnificent climax with the victorious
French troops advancing finally en
thusing completely the audience with
the first portrayal of Amernnari troops
in France.
"No words of mine," said Peirce,
"cap be a grater advertisement for
the Liberty Bends than this amazing
pictorial portrayal of what Germany
has done and .vould do to America had
she but the, chance."
The Peirce meeting is expected to
give tho Portland campaign a tremen
dous impetus.

MARY PICKFORD IN "REBECCA OF SUNNY
BROOK FARM.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21. (By
Mr.i!.) The American people have as
yet had practically no casualties in
this war. TUxi have, to date, sub
scribed $2,000,000,000 to the Second
Liberty Loan.
The German people have buffered
casualties of t,ij00,000 men, and the
German peoplj last week subscribed to
the Seventh wr loan of that country
,'f,!07,500,000.
That was the startling picture dis
played by Trc.eury Department Of
ficials' tonight.
"Under these circumstances," they
asked, "are iho American people con
tent to let this ruomparison stand?
They believj that tho answer will
be a rousing "NO!"
But the "NO" must be spelled out
in millions of dollars a day between
now and the close of the campaign on
Saturday at noon.

MARY PICKFORD MAKES
BIG HIT AS REBECCA.
In direct contrast to her more re
cent characterizations of powerful
Ciumatic qualities. Mary PickfoH's
next screen portrayal Is none other
than that of the popular figure in
American literature, "Rebecca of Sun
nybook Farm." During the past year
''Our Mary" has received countless re
quests for her appearance in this la
mous subject and her picturization of
quaint little Rebecna is in direct com
pliance with pupular demand.
Mary Pickford's presentation of
"The Poor Little Rich Girl" will 'ive
long in the hearts of American picture
patron In this child part the sweet
little actress icored one of her very
greatest successes and her adaptabil
ities to such potrayal were generally
conceded to be her most notable ac
complishments. However, even great
er than "The Poor Little Rich Girl" is
Rebecca, who has become a favorite
National charanter; in fact, a Nation
al type established not only in this,
but in other countries as well. Replete
with native wit of the rural districts
and the whole-Jume charm of untram
meled American girlhood, this story
.offers Mary Pickford a character that
it ii. generallf felt, will prove the
crov.ng achievement of her wonder
ful career.
One of the best sellers of the age,
the book of Kate Wiggin is undoubt
edly the mo3t popular work of this1
well-known writer. On the stage "Re
banca of Sunnybrook Farm," dramat
ized by Charlotte Thompson and Mrs.
Wiggin, immediately took hold of the
hearts of the great play-going public
and effected another triumph for the
spoken drama. With Mary Pickford
in the title role of its anreen presen
tation, offering the wide scope of the
motion picture, however, this subject
will meet with even far greater favor
than ever before.
Adapted to the screen by Frances
Marion, one of the very foremost
writers' connected with the cinema,
and staged under the capable direction
of Marshall Neilan, the youthful pro
ducer whose sensational accomplish
ments in the film drama have created
countrywide attention, Mary Pick-
fords new offering, released by Art
craft Pictures, offers a rare treat
to her vast army of admirers.
This photo play will be shown at
the Arcade on Friday and Saturday
and the management urges all who
possibly can dj so, to come to the mat
inees' and thus avoid the large evening
crowds.
